Chapter 894 Wives and Concubines

Crown Princess Tang returned to her bedroom and seemed to be in a bad mood.

Upon seeing this, her confidant Cen, the confidant she brought from her parents' home, stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong with your Majesty? But what unpleasant words did the West say to make your Majesty angry?"

Aunt Cen refers to the Liangdi Chen who lives in the West Wing Palace. Chen Liangdi and the Crown Princess Tang were originally close friends in the boudoir. After entering the palace, they stayed and helped each other for several years. The days when wives and concubines lived in harmony, but as time went by, some friendships were always there.

It is inevitable that changes will occur. Today, Crown Princess Tang and Chen Liangdi still look like good sisters in front of others, caring and caring for each other, but privately, they have long since separated. In fact, after the death of the emperor's grandson, Chen Liangdi fell seriously ill and fell silent.

She had been in trouble for a long time, but she seemed to be active again in recent years. Recently, she had been saying things that made Crown Princess Tang angry from time to time. So when Grandma Cen saw that Crown Princess was in a bad mood, she guessed that she was up to something.

However, Crown Princess Tang still fairly acquitted Chen Liangdi: "It has nothing to do with her, I am worried about other things." She brought Suning County Prince Zhao Mo into the palace and invited the prince to speak to the emperor and help him and the emperor.

Qin Hanzhen, the eldest granddaughter of Marquis Yongjia, told her about the marriage, and then sighed, "Miss Qin won't get hairpin until next year, and her father is an official in Guangzhou. Logically speaking, Prince Suning shouldn't be in such a hurry, he is only seventeen."

It's only 2 years old. It must have been some time ago that I planned to match him with the eldest daughter of Marquis Yunyang. He was not happy, so he wanted to finalize the marriage as soon as possible. How childish! I wanted to persuade him again, but

I'm afraid that if I push him too hard, he will become unhappy."

Aunt Cen knew what was going on as soon as she heard it. In fact, the Crown Princess had discussed the marriage between Prince Suning and the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Yunyang at the beginning.

She hurriedly said: "Prince Suning and Miss Qin San must have been childhood sweethearts and have a deep friendship, so he recognized her. He is still young, how can he understand the importance of it? It is possible that he was confused for a while and did not understand the painstaking efforts of the empress.

Your Majesty, there is no need to be anxious, just ask His Highness the Crown Prince to clarify this with Prince Suning."

The Crown Princess shook her head: "Your Highness is in favor of the marriage between Prince Suning and Miss Qin San. How do you want me to comment? Is it possible to tell His Highness that his uncle's granddaughter is not as good as the daughter of the Yunyang Marquis Mansion?"

Aunt Cen couldn't help but became speechless. Of course she couldn't say this. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had always respected Marquis Yongjia very much. The latter, unlike Marquis Chengen, was the younger brother that the late Empress Qin always cared about and talked about. Due to various misunderstandings,

He stayed in the frontier for thirty years, suffered a lot, and wasted his youth. Both the emperor and the prince were eager to compensate him. But Yongjiahou was a very sensible and good man who knew what was right. He strictly abided by his duties as a foreign relative.

, has never crossed the line. He was obviously a well-known Confucian in the northwest. After going to Beijing, he never formally accepted students. Even his original students have reduced their contacts. For many years, he has only indulged in poetry, calligraphy, painting, and traveling.

He also never asked for officials for his children and grandchildren. If all the relatives in this dynasty were as easy-going as him, the emperor would be much more relaxed. Therefore, the emperor and the prince respected him even more.

It is said that Miss Qin San has been studying calligraphy and painting with Marquis Yongjia, and she is extremely favored by Marquis Yongjia. To say that she is not good enough and not worthy of Prince Suning is obviously to fight in front of His Highness the Crown Prince!

The Crown Princess sighed again: "Actually, there is nothing wrong with Miss Qin San. She doesn't go to the palace often, but every time she goes to the palace, she is quiet, polite, courteous and pleasing to the eye. She is also good at painting! She painted it well.

Her paintings are better than those of many people in the boudoir, and she is also well-informed. She is a very good girl. People outside say how vulgar Mrs. Yongjiahou is, but in fact they have never seen her at all. She is just

She has a more straightforward temperament and is not used to talking to people in a roundabout way. She is similar to the wives of military generals, and is even more gentle than several generals' wives. The girl she trained was also personally owned by the Marquis of Yongjia.

What's wrong with teaching poetry and books? If Miss Qin San is just the princess of Suning County, there will be no problem at all. I quite like having such a straightforward and good-tempered nephew-in-law, so that I can save myself from trivial matters.

You have to fight with others."

Aunt Cen immediately understood what the Crown Princess meant: "But... Prince Suning will not just be a prince in the future! How can Miss Qin San be worthy of being the mother of a country with her temperament?"

The Crown Princess frowned slightly: "Isn't that right? To be the Lord of the Sixth Palace, it is not enough to only know poems, books and etiquette. Cai is a natural queen material. She is about the same age as Guanglu, but she prefers Guanglu.

He is so determined to marry Miss Qin San that he doesn’t even look at Mrs. Cai..."

Aunt Cen smiled and said: "Maybe it's because Prince Suning has never seen Miss Cai very often. If he sees such a beauty..."

The princess shook her head and interrupted: "It's not that he has never been seen before, but after seeing him, he is still indifferent. What can I do? I asked the Cai family to test him before, but he didn't answer at all.

, the Cai family also understands in their hearts, and does not intend to force it. They are already looking for someone else for the Cai family. Can I still force the Cai family to marry a daughter? Guanglu is not happy with this matter, and neither is the Cai family, so they have to give up.

It's just that when I think about Guanglu adopting the East Palace in the future, because the empress dowager has little help in the court and is struggling, I feel bad... Anyway, if my father is still there on that day, I will be there.

I asked him to support Guanglu."

Aunt Cen looked at the Crown Princess lovingly: "My Majesty has worked so hard, but it's a pity that Prince Suning can't understand it..."

The Crown Princess smiled bitterly: "How can he understand? He told His Highness and me more than once that he did not want to enter the palace. His Royal Highness did not comment, but I knew in my heart that if he really wanted to adopt him, His Highness would only adopt him. Therefore, this is just

It's a matter of time." She sighed, "It would be great if the adoption was settled as soon as possible, and I could legitimately handle the marriage for him, and I wouldn't be as helpless as I am now. But the emperor refused to agree,

He also hopes that our Highness will have his own heir!"

Aunt Cen whispered: "I would like to say something that is taboo. Your Highness has taken good care of your health, so you may not have the chance to have more children, but it is not easy for your Majesty to have children again. A son who comes out of someone else's belly, no matter how well you raise him, will not be able to have any more children."

With the biological mother standing in the way, it is impossible for her to be of the same mind as the empress, and the empress will inevitably be restricted by others in the future. Even if the empress does not think about herself, she should also think about the princess! Although Suning County Prince is not the empress’s biological child, his biological mother died young, and he and the princess have to think about each other.

My biological father is estranged, but his character is trustworthy. Instead of letting the sons of other concubines put pressure on the empress and the princess in the future, it is better to support Prince Suning!"

The Crown Princess lowered her eyes: "Don't say such words in the palace again. As long as it is His Highness's son, whoever gives birth to it will call me mother. It is no different. It's just that His Highness wants to adopt Prince Suning, so I will

Just follow his wishes. He is older and adopted earlier, so he can take care of Your Highness's worries earlier. I have no selfish motives, so don't talk nonsense in front of others, as it will cause others to misunderstand my true meaning."

Aunt Cen hurriedly lowered her head: "I said something wrong, please forgive me."

The Crown Princess waved her hands and sighed: "Well, now it's too late to say anything. Just follow Guang Lu's wishes and let him marry the granddaughter of Marquis Yongjia. At any rate, she came from the uncle's house, and the holy family is prosperous.

For the sake of the empress, the emperor will take more care of him. Later, when he enters the palace, if the court is dissatisfied with his background, the worst he can do is find two concubines with good backgrounds for him. He

My health is much better than His Highness, so there is no need to limit the number of concubines in the backyard too tightly."

Mrs. Cen asked in a low voice: "Should we choose someone from the family? Even if there is only one person, if we can get some favor from Prince Suning, the empress and the princess will be more confident in the future..."

The Crown Princess was silent. This matter was a bit taboo, and it seemed that she had selfish motives. This was different from her matchmaking of Zhao Mo and Cai Yuanzhen. She was a little unsure whether she should give it a try.

At this time, a palace official suddenly came to report: "Chen Liangdi wishes to see the Crown Princess."

The Crown Princess came back to her senses and learned that Chen Liangdi was here. She couldn't help but sigh: "Let her come in." She then asked Aunt Cen, "I'll report to you later that Yi'er (Zhao Yi, the princess of Minshun County) is looking for me, so I don't have to worry about it."

Chen Liangdi kept talking." Aunt Cen nodded knowingly and stepped back.

Chen Liangdi looks good. She has been actively taking supplements for more than two years. She looks a lot fatter than before. Fortunately, she has not become a big fat person out of control. She just looks plump. She came here to hint to the princess,

Prince Dao has only been to her palace twice this year, and the number of times is really too few. When the prince is busy with official duties, she will certainly not pester him unreasonably. But I heard that the prince has been relatively leisurely recently, can he spend more time in the East Palace?

How long will it take? How much more effort will you make for future generations?

The Crown Princess pursed her lips. She and Chen Liangdi were best friends when they were not married, but the latter was two years younger than her, and she was thirty-two-three this year. Although she is not young at this age, she can still have children.

It is common to hear news about officials' daughters having children of a similar age. Chen Liangdi's health seems to be very good, and she has great expectations for giving birth to an imperial grandson.

How could the Crown Princess feel better just by discussing the topic of having a child in front of the Crown Princess who was already thirty-five years old and had been injured during childbirth and was probably no longer able to have children?

She just lightly asked Chen Liangdi to be patient and rest more. When the prince is free and sexy, he will naturally visit Chen Liangdi. Apart from their wives and concubines, there is no third prince's woman in the East Palace.

Now, she is already old and has nothing to argue with. When the time comes, isn’t Chen Liangdi the only one who can serve the prince? She doesn’t need the prince to visit a few times before she is startled and runs to the main room to beg.

People are disgusted.

Of course, the words used by the Crown Princess were much more euphemistic, but that was the meaning. Chen Liangdi had known her for twenty years, what could he not recognize? She felt that her face was burning, and she was extremely embarrassed. Chen Liangdi reluctantly insisted on being polite and resigned.

After coming out, he walked quickly back to the west side hall, threw himself on the bed and cried loudly.

When her maid Cuizhi saw this, she quickly had the doors and windows closed, fearing that her cries would spread outside and let the Crown Princess know. She also comforted Chen Liangdi and told her not to be sad.

Chen Liangdi stopped crying suddenly, got up from the bed, gritted her teeth and asked: "Qianer, what did your mother say when you were ordered by me to send things home? Did she want her niece to come to the East Palace to keep me company?"
